Delivering Art, Or Why I Should Always Have My Camera

No images this time, because, yes, I did not have the camera with me. We were in Columbus today, dropping off art at the Mid Ohio Regional Planning Commission for their "Art in the Halls". The Commission is in the middle of the area's Brewery District, full of wonderful renovated old architecture, a miniature Eiffel Tower (I was so busy looking at it that we passed the MORPC without seeing it), and at the end of the street, the most wonderful weathered water tower. It may have been checked, even, it was hard to tell with the snow flying everywhere. Which also made it a really cool picture (I have been channelling grays lately). But, alas, no camera.

If I need to go back next month to pick up art, you can be sure I'll have the camera.

Snow for my Birthday?

Ok, this hasn't happened in at least twenty years, and that time it had snowed on April 4th so we had residual snow (it takes a while for eight inches of snow to melt).

This is the view out my front door this morning. It looks like Ed's lights are on but that is just a reflection.

This is a tighter closeup of Jim and Lucy's driveway and the hillside at the end of my street. They razed the trees last winter, just in that bare patch you can see there. I don't know why, because the trees are still lying on the ground out there. But this gives a good idea of the snow cover. And if you look closely you can see the green in the trees right behind the houses.
